Celebrate Good Neighbor Day
Connect2Neighbors
National Good Neighbor Day — annually on September 28th — may have looked a little different in 2020, but it’s more important than ever to stay connected to our communities.
Physical distancing doesn’t have to mean social disconnection, and AARP Foundation has lots of ways to celebrate Good Neighbor Day safely. From virtual volunteer opportunities to simply letting your neighbors know you care, we can help you keep those neighborly connections strong.
Share your Good Neighbor Day moment on social media with #GoodNeighborDay2020 — and don’t forget to keep connecting all year ’round!

Studies show that isolation and loneliness are as bad for your health as smoking or obesity — especially if you’re over 50.
Isolation is more than being alone. It’s the result of being disconnected from support groups of family, friends and community.
Family members and neighbors are often the first to notice the signs of isolation but may not know how to interpret them — or what to do about them.
